I had a two-enchilada plate, with green sauce on one and red sauce on the other. The flavors were very good and the service was very friendly. The prices are slightly higher than a couple of other nearby restaurants, but still in an affordable price range.

My husband and I stopped at this restaurant for dinner. This was our first time here. The staff was very friendly. The food was very good. I ordered the molcajete and it consisted of chicken, shrimp and carne asada on top of chorizo with melted cheese. It was delicious. My husband ordered the fajitas. Both orders came with rice and...

The food is authentic, with some unique family-type recipes. Most of the regulars get a tall beer served with shrimp, celery, and other things, but I forgot its name. You won't go away hungry! Very friendly atmosphere.

Service is good, servers attentive and as fast as possible. Nice full portions of moist rice and tasty refried beans with each platter. I love the combos as I can never make up my mind - it's all good. Meaty pollo (chicken) that stewed and flavorful; tender asada (beef) and carnitas that fill the tortillas. If you like chile rellenos...

We went here after reading reviews online while spending one night at the Laurel Inn (which was a nice place). The place is a dive or hole in the wall with maybe 10 tables which are the portable plastic type with plastic table cloths. BUT the food was delicious and they served very big portions for the price. My husband...

The burrito al pastor and cheese enchiladas were amazing. But, the restroom is in an adjoining apartment building and appears to be shared with tenants. The potty was clean, but there was no place to wash your hands. At all. So that just grosses me out that patrons use the toilet, can't wash, then touch condiments, tables, chairs, etc. Deal...
